PUPILS from Trafford schools have gained top marks from the business community.
A trade fair held in Manchester to celebrate the thirtieth year of the Young Enterprise programme saw borough schools scoop half of the prizes on offer.
'Toucan', a Flixton Girls' High School company making terracotta pots, won the award for best product, and 'Fusion' - based on Jeff Joseph Sale Moor Technology College and Sale Grammar School - was highly commended in the same category.
'Uniq' from Stretford Grammar School was highly commended for its marketing techniques.
The trade fair was the first of a series of Young Enterprise events this spring, leading up to an awards presentation evening planned in May.
